Materials Needed
- Glass globe terrariums
- Succulent soil mix
- Succulent plants
- Small rocks or pebbles
- String or fishing line
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun
- Googly eyes (optional)
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Globe Terrariums
First, prepare your glass globe terrariums by cleaning them with soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before proceeding.
Step 2: Add Soil and Plants
Next, add a layer of small rocks or pebbles to the bottom of the terrarium for drainage. Then, fill the terrarium with a succulent soil mix, leaving enough space at the top for the plants. Plant your succulents in the soil and gently pat down the soil around each plant.
Step 3: String and Hang the Terrariums
Cut a length of string or fishing line to your desired length and tie it securely around the top of the terrarium. Repeat this step for all your terrariums. Once you have all your terrariums strung, tie the loose ends of the strings together at the desired length to create a cluster of jellyfish.
Step 4: Add Jellyfish Features
Now for the fun part! Using a hot glue gun, attach googly eyes to the top of each terrarium. Cut strips of leftover string or fishing line and attach them to the bottom of the terrarium to create tentacles.
Tips for Care
Jellyfish hanging succulents require little maintenance, but it is important to keep them healthy. Here are some tips:
- Water your succulents sparingly and only when the soil is dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Place your jellyfish succulent in a bright, sunny location. Succulents thrive in direct sunlight.
- Be gentle when watering to avoid disturbing the tentacles.
- If your succulent outgrows its terrarium, transfer it to a larger pot and start again.
